Telekast A Tablet PR is a combination of two medicines that can help prevent the onset of an asthma attack if it is taken before exercise or exposure to some “triggers”. These “triggers” may include house dust, pollen, pets, and cigarette smoke. This medicine relaxes the muscles of your airways which makes the air easier to get in and out. It will, therefore, allow you to exercise more freely without worrying about getting symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath. This enables you to live your life more freely without worrying so much about things that set off your symptoms.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
Use it as advised by your doctor or check the label for directions before use. Telekast A Tablet PR may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
Telekast A Tablet PR is a combination of two medicines: acebrophylline and montelukast. Acebrophylline is a mucolytic and helps relax the muscles in the airways. It thins and loosens mucus (phlegm), making it easier to cough out. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist. It works by blocking the action of leukotriene, a chemical messenger. This reduces inflammation in the airways and nose to prevent asthma and relieve symptoms of allergies.
